    Summary

    After the events of Guanyin Temple, after the dust has settled on everything, Nie Huaisang finds himself appointed Chief Cultivator.

    ----

    "Is that one of your fans?”

    Jiang Cheng’s cheeks have flushed bright red again. It really is sweet, just how quickly such a stern man can become flustered. Huaisang opens the fan, looking down at the delicate trees inked onto it. It’s an older one, bought on one of his many visits to Jinlintai.

    “Ahh, no, no,” he says. “I don’t have time for silly things like that nowadays. You all insist on giving me so much work to do!” He chokes the last few words out, dropping the fan onto the table and reaching for his wine cup. If he moves fast enough, Jiang Cheng might miss the way his hands have begun to shake. He’d wanted to paint a fan like this, one more detailed than this. He’d planned to go out into the mountains for a week or so, observing nature and painting to his heart’s content. And then he’d remembered the last time he’d wanted to do that, and how his brother had said no. He’d tried to beg and plead and then— 

    “Some things are best left in the past, don’t you think, Jiang-xiong?”

    Summary

    A.Z. Fell and Co. Antiquarian Bookshop has been the ultimate paradox for book lovers for over 200 years: It has almost every book imaginable, but an owner who refuses to sell any of them. At least there is fun to be had and friends to be made in the ambitious, if rarely successful, endeavours of the customers.

    Summary

    It is with an exasperated sigh that I introduce you to an official thread for this guy. We've discussed it and we've decided that this is the only way we can stop you guys from derailing threads to complain about this guy. By mod decree, all Mr Fell complaining, griping, bitching, grousing, and miscellaneous butthurt now belongs in THIS THREAD AND THIS THREAD ONLY.

    The forumgoers of The Codex, a forum for rare book hunters, come to some very interesting conclusions about the personal life of one Mr Fell of Soho. (Inspired by a tumblr post.)

    Summary

    Before anyone reports this post, I got this AMA authorised by posting proof to a mod, so there.

    Hi, Reddit! I’m no-one special, but about 6 months ago, I moved into a flat above a cafe next door to a bookshop, and my life has never been the same since, because the man who runs the bookshop is some sort of ageless (mostly) benevolent eldritch being. By all accounts, he hasn’t aged a day since at least 1944, sometimes he seems to have just too many eyes, and I once saw him turn water into wine (a nice rosé). His coworker / best friend / boyfriend / shadow entity is also definitely some kind of cryptid, but despite trying harder to be a bastard, he’s somehow less successful at it.

    So, if you have any questions about what it’s like to live next door to an eternal bastard man, AMA!

    Or, a cryptid bastard man haunts Reddit, trying to find out how to ask out his crush of the past 6,000 years and getting downvoted to literal oblivion. Just normal stuff on the world wide web.

    Summary

    She doesn't want to leave, just yet. Wants to look a little longer on a face she knows, wants to speak with someone who doesn't regard her with deference or fear or distaste for the name she carries.

    “I heard about your mother,” Lest says, her voice going softer. “I'm... sorry it happened that way.”

    Mel inclines her head. Treacherously, she feels her lip tremble, feels the burn of tears behind her eyes. Fights it back, fights not to allow it. “Thank you.”

    Or

    Before she leaves for Noxus, Mel goes to see Lest.

    Written for Femslash February 2025, day 27: Be here for me.

    There are no happy endings awaiting Antonio in Illyria. Perhaps Venice will prove kinder.

    Then again, perhaps the story is not truly over.

    "I'm afraid something's wrong with Sir Andrew." 

    Antonio has learned that it is a common expression used at the estate, long in use before his arrival. He has also learned its meaning: could you go check up on him?

    Summary

    “No misfortune in welcoming a friend,” Olivia says, and Viola hopes she’s sincere. “The house has been empty of late.”

    Olivia leads her into a sunlit room meant for company. They breakfast on oven-warm bread and the first green pears of the season. Three times, Viola makes her laugh, truly and impolitely.

    Summary

    Olivia saw his face. His kind, surprisingly gentle face. And for a moment could no longer breathe. She blushed, terribly, then shook herself, out of it. “And who might you be,” she asked.

    His voice cracked. “Cesario, my lady,” he answered, “I am but a humble servant of the generous Duke Orsino.”
